Challenge #84 - Anything Apart From A Card

Hey! And welcome to a new challenge here at The Male Room. 

As you know we accept all types of paper crafts for our challenges, but for the next fortnight, cards are out! Instead, we'd like to see any other type of paper craft creation you can think of.


And I'm joining in and playing along too. You've probably spotted that I usually only get involved in the admin side of things, so it's with huge delight that I'm Guest Designing for this challenge!

Guest Designer - Jane from purplejetlovescrafts


Anyone who knows me will know that a scrapbook page was the obvious choice for my project and I really hope you enjoy seeing it and will maybe come visit my blog and leave me a little love.

The Male Room DT have been hard at work creating fabulous and interesting projects to kick start your ideas. I'm thinking they would love it if you visited their blogs too and left them a lovely comment.

You have until midnight (BST) Tuesday 8th May, that's 7.00pm EDT in the States. Can't wait to see what you create!

Challenge #83 - Symmetry

Do you like all things mathematical? Do you like patterns and shapes?  Well I'm sure this new challenge here at The Male Room will suit you then.  And even if neither is really your thing I'm sure you will have used symmetry at some point to help you organise and set things out, so this challenge should be a breeze.


We have the wonderful Majda returning to Guest Design with us for this challenge. She is a previous winner and has also left comments on our facebook page. I'm always on the look out for potential Guest Designers so leave us a comment and maybe you might get the invitation!

Guest Designer - Majda

What an amazing card! And there's a sweet back story to it too. Majda works with young children and when they talk about symmetry she says they always like to choose hearts and that's why she chose to use a heart for her card.  Do go visit her blog and leave her some love!

All The Male room DT have also created super symmetrical projects to inspire you. They would all love it if you popped over to their blogs and left them a lovely positive comment.
